This introduces a new configuration variable, core.origin, that defines the name of the default remote to be used. Traditionally, this is "origin", and could be overridden for a given branch. This change introduces a way to redefine the default as desired and have that honored regardless of the currently checked out head (e.g., core.origin is used when on a detached head or any other non-tracking branch).
